Taking place from May 27-29, the BBC moved the sold-out event to Coventry’s War Memorial Park with Ed Sheeran, Lorde and Calvin Harris among the headliners.
While a large chunk of tickets are available for locals, there is a pot of tickets available for music fans across the country – but you’ll need to be quick as there’s not a lot to do.
Here’s how you can buy a ticket for one of the hottest concerts in town.
How are tickets allocated for Radio 1’s Grand Weekend?
Tickets will go on sale at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, March 18 and only through Ticketmaster.
Each year, Radio 1 partners with the city council, which means that local residents receive a certain number of tickets reserved for them.
Tickets are divided into three “pots”:
Saucepan 1: 60% of tickets will initially be reserved for residents of Coventry City Council. These tickets will be reserved for seven days until 5 p.m. on Thursday, March 24, after which time any unsold tickets will be offered for general sale.
Saucepan 2: 25% of tickets will initially be reserved for those living in the remaining ‘CV’ postcodes, all Birmingham ‘B’ postcodes and some Leicester postcodes (LE1,2,3,4,5,6,8, 9,10,17, 18,19). These tickets will be reserved for seven days until 5 p.m. on Thursday, March 24, after which time any unsold tickets will be offered for general sale.
Jar 3: The remaining 15% of tickets are available for the rest of the UK.
If you are part of Pot 1 or 2, you can get your tickets by entering your home zip code when purchasing tickets.
